Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Line a strainer with fine cheese cloth, and drain yogurt of excess liquid for at least a half hour - the thicker it is, the better.
  2. While yogurt drains, peel cucumber, slice in quarters lengthwise, and remove seeds.
  3. Grate cucumber into small strips using medium sized holes on standard veggie/cheese grater. Squeeze excess water from cucumber using hands, or cheesecloth.
  4. Mince several cloves of garlic (about 1 Tbsp. or more).
  5. When yogurt is thick, combine it with all other ingredients, stir thoroughly, and enjoy.
  6. Keeps well, refrigerated in an air-tight container for several days. Drain any excess water released from cucumbers, before eating.
